Dad and I never got along
Our relationship wasn't very strong
I love my dad so much
I wish that we could keep in touch
Dad always uses liquor as an excuse
For all my child abuse
He doesn't even seem to try
And that's why I had to say goodbye
He says he doesn't care
But every night I make a prayer
That someday he will realize
That he's the one I idolize
I don't want it to be this way
I want to get along some day
You're more of a stranger than a dad
And that's why I feel so bad
I want you to know that I'm your son
I want to spend time with you and have some fun
I know inside that you want to try
But you always end up making me cry
